One Of The BEST Phones of 2022 Is Also The Most Underrated 

Sounds like a lot of people

Welcome to the club lol

Which country are you from? You shouldn’t buy a phone more often than every 3 years. If you live in a country that’s not absolutely 3rd world and this is a thing for you than buying a flagship shouldn’t be a problem if you save for a few months. When I was living in China, around 5-6 years ago. Our staff was making between 6000-9000rmb a month. It’s around $1000-$1500 us. They all had iPhones and iPads. Some of them had families and responsibilities. If you a kid, I don’t know, when I was 15 I worked at McDonalds until I could afford to import a PlayStation from Japan. It was $800 1994 Australian dollars.

I mean it's almost the same for many things these days. When you save to finally purchase it, boom!, a new release of the brand has been made.

You could turn a hobby into making videos yourself :)

Yep they can force updates on you and introduce annoying bugs that they don't bother fixing for months if ever to a previously perfectly working phone

Always people nitpicking about curved screens, why don't you opt for a Sony phone then?

I don't understand why people don't like curved edges?

Too each his own mate , the iphones do have some redeeming features too that android devices do not have , and it is easy to get carried away with a lot of the gimmicky crap that often rarely sees more use than the first week while the novelty is still working on you , and then very rarely in daily life after that if we are to be honest . As a 10 year android boy still to this day but also with an iphone , this is something i have come to appreciate about iphones , just small things like the mute switch on the side , magsafe which i use every single day , and just the general good performance in all areas that has very few weak areas , and no annoying bits like curved edge screens which i have endured for my last three android phones.

Good choice. If sammy doesn’t sort out their stutters and jittery software I’ll defo go for the Oppo. It’s the s pen I really like and that turns it for me. But I really hated my s22 ultra because of the software. Plus Exynos really has to go which I think it is. Will be interesting.

@@TheMachines Glad to say One UI 5 is much more smoother, still not iPhone level but at least 50% smoother for me. Optimisation is important, which is where iOS has been Top G; battery, software and performance optimisation. I'm back on Android for the past 4 years.

@Adam Gibson that's right. In fairness it's only pixel that matches iPhone for smoothness. Oppo comes close as does one plus.

@@TheMachines literally iPhone dominates with worse hardware due to software optimisation, eg ram management and camera. CPU is a different story they have some of the best from TSMC but optimisation still helps. Samsung usually has the best hardware outright which is why I'm with them S21. Waiting for my Find X5 pro to arrive tho can't wait.

Pixel 7 pro is garbage, just had mine replaced and sold it on. Oppo on its way, £270 I paid for it,had a right result 👊

Agreed.

Nope

Really? This design is hideous to me. I hate the S22 Ultra design but that one slaps this phones design.

@@doomy_doomy2225 obviously you're lgbtq

Chinese brands are safe. They also produce the best phones for the money. Huawei got sanctioned because they were getting too big. Other brands are smart enough to not piss off Apple.

i don't think it was meant for the US market tho...

This is better than the 13 Pro in my opinion, and I have owned one for a while. The onlything the 13 Pro is slighty better in is the Video recording, and I mean very slightly!

@@KeViNTT1981 thanks for your feedback.

Why spend money maybe work less and life not consume and waste

I have this device and updates are coming monthly without delay. Great phone and faster than my S22U and much better RAM management. It also cost me £400 less!

I don't think it was planned for US market though. Oppo never launches its phone in US, they launch in Europe, Australia, South east Asia,etc parts but never US...

Haha, seriously.

you really worry about data in Chinese company when Google knows and by extension FBI and hundred of authorised authorities in the West. China can do nothing by profiling you nothing they don't hold any power in the west, whereas data from west can be accessed by west to use against you.

i think you got confused between Xiaomi and BBK phones. It was Xiaomi who had this data breach issue. I still don't trust them though. But BBK...it's different. Vivo did indeed got into an issue with the Indian govt. but that was more because of Money and CEOs fleeing and not data breach. Overall you can trust the BBK brands like Oppo, OnePlus and Realme. I am 60-40 on Vivo and Iqoo as their software is really bad. And also not to forget that you have Files be Google and by that you can see each and every app and program in your device, even if it's something like Gestures and Motions

Wrong Building under 1 mile of water

How is it so far?

Haha, you're good.

Hey, you're not alone in having no life 🙂. I have none too

You do have a life. You can live how you want In it.

thats funny guy i needed that!!!

they are very much into marketing 😅 Marketing is literally 8 steps of the 10 steps of BBK Electronic. The thing is that they sent their phones as Review units to US but youtubers keep recommending them whereas they aren't even meant for US market

yeah microscope used to be fun. But again market is not gained by gimmicks but more practical sense. Just look at iphones they didn't do a single gimmick ever and yet they own a major part of the market. Then there's OnePlus who didn't do much but just re-branded oppo phone designs and sold it and yet they own a good part of the market. Then Samsung has always been consistent on Zoom. They are giving periscope on all their ultra flagships so we can't consider their act as a gimmick too. But when you compare Find X3 pro, it's microscope was indeed a gimmick. This time they focussed more on software and camera tech than giving gimmicks which used to be the sale point of Find X series

I assume you are in the US, in the UK the price is very good, £200 cheaper than the S22u at launch plus you get £350 worth of free gifts. I suspect if the US was not dominated by Samsung in Android world then OPPO would release with a very attractive price.

Why should the price be lower? The phone is worth every penny.

You can, and its vitually like stock android, Color OS is beautiful on it! Ordered mine from E-Bay!

at the moment I can buy it for 600€ in Portugal...(new)

Yeah especially at night........

Nope

That does sound a tad narrow , i think my old LG G5 had a 130 degree wide angle , and i have to say , some of my coolest photos i have ever taken on a smart phone came out of that little phone .

yeah not wide enough but when you compare to competition, it stands out in details and every other major thing except angle

Global version does not.

Nop

Two day phone 😂😂 I charge mine 2/3 times a day

Maybe less fortnite

bro...it was OnePlus's decision to merge with oppo. And if you go according to OnePlus past you will see why. They always used to be Oppo phones with just Oxygen OS pumped into it. And also OnePlus was on a declining phase when this merge occurred. Blame Carl Pie for leaving the company at its most crucial time. If they didn't merge with Oppo then there wouldn't be any OnePlus in future as Oppo phones were becoming better each year alongside ColorOS as which OnePlus wasn't doing with their Oxygen OS and the final nail was that Oxygen OS started causing issues on some models which after tons of updates even didn't got fixed most of the times. So the remaining ways were either merged with Oppo and focused on developing and implementing colorOS on OnePlus phones or becoming a history. They need to do business and not cater to the fans of Oxygen OS. OnePlus was known as the flagship killer when they used to give the specs at low price but when they launched their first Flagship (which again was a re-branded oppo find X phone) they lost that title. So think according to the brand. Do you want them to become like LG and vanish? or do you want them to take a step back, upset the fanboys and improve like Sony? and regarding Prices, it's not that the Oppo price doesn't drop lol. Some people bought this Find X5 pro for just under 1000$ with a lot of goodies which Samsung or Apple do. If you wanna know who the Apple of Android is then it's Samsung.

@@dragonforcegaming7555 samsung is definitely not the apple of android, no other phones get so slow over time as samsung. might be true, that oneplus needed oppos help, but nonetheless oxygen 11 was way better than 12, 11 is true oxygen, 12 is based on color os and it's worse in almost every aspect, which has nothing to do with fanboy mimimi but it's a fact...just because oneplus is together with oppo doesn't mean they need to loose their identity...just look what they have done with the 10pro and especially with the 10t...crap deluxe.

@@markuslc1888 If you are comparing with speed and reliability of Samsung and Apple then no way Samsung is close but if you go according to prices, specs, it's own product eco-system and more over update policy, you will see how it is the Apple of Android eco-system. And also yeah I would agree with Oxygen OS 12. OnePlus made complete crap of it. Like literally ColorOS 12 on OPPO's own low budget F-series and Realme's budget Narzo series is far better than the mixed crap that oneplus made. But this time on Oxygen OS 13 I just hope it does time better. Because it's not colorOS which is causing the problems, it's their useless integration of it. Also given that OnePlus is no more that Enthusiast focussed brand, 10 pro is actually competing with the likes of S22 plus, Pixel 6 pro,etc while 10T is competing with S22 (base), Pixel 6 and 6a,etc. So it's still has an identity, of competing with phones that are priced in 700$ segment. Oxygen OS would have been great only if it wouldn't be causing issues. Also OnePlus actually lost their identity a long time back, the time they launched their first flagship, its identity as "flagship killer" . Oxygen OS was saving their a** but again Oxygen OS itself started having problems with a lot of models. You must have heard about the unusual storage filling issue that some models of OnePlus, fun fact, it was actually running the True Oxygen OS and yet the issues were terrible ones . Not even Samsung's useless TouchWiz UI had such an issue back in the 2013s. And OnePlus wasn't even able to solve this issue after tons of updates. In some models, the Camera was suddenly crashing or whitewashing the complete image, for some they couldn't answer a call as the green button won't respond,etc. And all of these happened with the true oxygen OS. They of course made a poop of ColorOS 12 on their phone and please feel free to roast the hell out of them for messing up. But that isn't because of oppo or ColorOS or BBK. It's solely the fault of OnePlus.

AU$1800 (US$1237) when it came out in Australia in April 2022 (came with Oppo Enco X earbuds and Oppo smartwatch), dropped to AU$1399 (US$961) this year, bought it 2 days ago (brand new from a retailer) for AU$899 (US$618), some retailers still asking AU$1399...🤩

What are you talking about? ColorOS is fantastic, it's just a light skin with some personalizations on stock Android, everything works and it's very smooth. And Oppo officially announced they will provide 3 major Android updates and 4 years of security patches for Find X series phones so I really don't know where did you get your wrong informations.

where did you get this wrong info? which idiot said this? Oppo promises , 1 OS update for A-series 2 OS updates for the K and F series (sometimes we get 3 also) 3yrs security patches 3 OS update for Reno and Find X Series along with 4yrs security patches. and regarding ColorOS it's refined to such an extent now that it literally ties with OneUI as the best Android skin after Pixel UI.

Give me then

@@shadowform1264 it's in horrific condition, ordered an iPhone this week

@@garner145 well thats unfortunate... Still i would love it, need 1 for work 😢

No its not, best android OS by far

@@shadowform1264 for you yes, for me no

@@btlei well, yeah thats my opinion, but... Have you had a bad experience with colorOS?! Or just personal taste?

@@shadowform1264 i tried Color Os, Mi Ui both are not there yet.

@@btlei well i had a Xiaomi for like 3 months, and i think it has a really bad UI.... Ok the other hand, now i have an OPPO and colorOS its been flawless, 0 bugs and crashes, before that had Samsung Galaxy a52 5g, and One UI,i think its really Ugly an a bit clunky sometimes.

Cannot think of a flagship phone with a jack or expandable storage apart from Huawei, that does not have Google Services. So that rules you out of many phones. The jack is ended because the EU has asked headphone makers to stop using a jack and use USB-C. So OEMs just doing what the EU will dictate (fines and bans if they do not). As for expandable storage, removing that means the cost of internal storage gets cheaper due to higher supply and economies of scale. This is good fo tech. SD cards are old and very few people need them now in flagship phones. In low cost phones they are still useful.

@@andyH_England nope SD needed badly...some places don't have internet coverage and cloud companies keep raising rates and if they go outta business there goes your pics

So , you wont buy a galaxy, a pixel, or 99% of other phones on the market ?

Name a 6" phone of today that has all of those "basic" features. Take all the time you need.

@@liberty0758 Sony phones have those features lol

But you have no problem with american spyware.

If you have a phone, you have Chinese spyware.

Dude..... you have Facebook, Instagram, tick tock,....read the terms of service....
